The Miocene coals in the Asem-Asem Basin were formed in river and delta areas. They contain mainly vitrinite and liptinite, with some inertinite and low mineral content. Brighter coals have more vitrinite, while duller coals have more inertinite and minerals. The coal types are influenced by tectonic, geological, climate, and plant factors. The coals range from brown to high volatile bituminous, suitable for combustion use.
